The Arizona Cardinals lost the game on Sunday against the Oakland Raider but they came out of the game pretty healthy. When coach Steve Wilks addressed the media on Monday, he revealed there was only one “significant injury.”

That was linebacker Deone Bucannon. He left the game with a chest injury and Wilks said it was a chest contusion. As for how much time he might miss, Wilks did not yet know. He had not yet spoken with team trainer Tom Reed.

He also expressed hope to get all the players who missed the game on Sunday because of injury back in the lineup this week.

He said he was “very hopeful” for receiver Chad Williams, left tackle D.J. Humphries, safety Budda Baker and defensive tackle Robert Nkemdiche.

Wilks indicated that kicker Phil Dawson could have played on Sunday, but he and the staff decided to let him rest a game to keep from it getting aggravated during the game and leaving the team without a kicker.

The Cardinals will release their first injury report of the week on Wednesday.

According to ESPN's Adam Schefter, there are a couple of other things to note about camp for the Cardinals and the rest of the league.

One is that teams will not be able to hold any joint practices during camp.

The Cardinals were going to consider that and it would have made sense leading up to their...

Arizona Cardinals cornerback Patrick Peterson was one of three Cardinals to be named to the NFL All-Decade team in April, recognizing the best players from 2010-2019. As he made the Pro Bowl in each of his first eight seasons, it makes sense.

However, coming off a pair of tough seasons personally, it meant a lot to him.

"I cried when I got that because going through that season last year, having the suspension and having to deal with that," he told reporters in a video conference.
